I'm going to be a little more predictable and say that there's a steep decline from Grace to Power Windows. However, I do agree that Grace Under Pressure is a fantastic and underrated record. I think you can make a strong case that the three finest CONSECUTIVE Rush records are Moving Pictures, Signals, and Grace. Then again, every record from 2112 to Grace is a masterpiece so I could understand going with any consecutive three starting at 2112 and ending with Grace. And I respect Chula's love for Power Windows but like I said, Grace is the last record I consider a masterpiece. I still think Power Windows is very good, just not great.
It's very hard for me to pick an overall top three Rush records. 2112 and Signals are my top two but that third spot... I just don't know.
